Where? And bikers in Europe would likely have a collective attitude, just as they do in the states? And if so, these European biker events would be potential covid super-spreaders, for bikers are not known for wearing masks are paying much attention to government demands. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Giulio, how it is for bikers in Yugoslavia? I just went into Google Maps to take a look at street view just outside of Budapest. The Google car showed there are plenty of cars around but I never did see motorcycles anywhere? Don’t you guys have biker groups there? Don’t they have rallies and such?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I will offer this: just going into Yugoslavia Street View was an education: wheeeeeere the heeeeellll is all the traffic? Most of the streets appear deserted. What’s up, did you guys have the rapture but instead of taking the religion people it took away those with drivers licenses? Why bother having roads if they aren’t all clogged up with cars? I soooo don’t understand Europe.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>spike<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
